I used to sell stuff on eBay, until they started requiring me to give them access to my bank account. Yeahhh, like THAT’s ever gonna happen!
I just donate to Goodwill now and take the tax writeoff.

I finally broke down and got venmo. I had paypal. But neither are tied to my bank account, why the hell would you do that? Mine is tied to a credit card

Um yeah... tell that to my wife

Just curious - is there anyone else here who doesn’t have ANY close friends (and is ok with that)? I have ‘work’ friends. And “online’ friends. But if I had to think of someone to call up and go to a movie with, I couldn’t do it. Which is fine, because I like to do stuff alone.

Yeah we also get about 400 kids in our house every Halloween . We live in a neighbourhood near 4 different schools so we have lots of families. I do a big display in the front yard every year come in the kids love it (stonehavenmanor.net). This year we’re going to set out a table at the sidewalk with treat bags so the…

All the kiosks near me will wave the processing fee if you get a gift certificate. So that’s what I do now. I used to spend time rolling my extra change and taking it to the bank. Now I just get a Home Depot gift certificate and buy power tools (grunt!)

I admit this does work. In a pinch you can just do this with plain water in a microwave safe cup. No need to buy a lemon - I know we don’t often have lemons sitting around in the kitchen.
